Spotted
The Black-faced Antthrush is a widespread terrestrial bird of the Neotropical forest floor, characterized by its dark facial mask. It often forages for insects disturbed by army ant columns.
Where to spot
Common in humid lowland and foothill forests across a wide range in South America, from Colombia and Venezuela south to Bolivia and Brazil.
How to spot
Listen for its clear, distinctive whistling song, which often reveals its presence. Scan the forest floor, especially in dense undergrowth or near fallen logs, for its characteristic walking movements.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, particularly during early morning and late afternoon. Can be found year-round.

Unlike many other antbirds, antthrushes typically walk and hop rather than follow ants in large mixed-species flocks, often staying a bit further from the main swarm.
